“I spent two years writing 65 letters to my children on everything I’ve learned related to money, investing, relationships, work, health and happiness.”
On today’s livestream I’m delighted to welcome a man who continues to be one of the most articulate and reliable voices in the crypto industry. Anthony Pompliano is a renowned entrepreneur, investor and author with a firm belief in Bitcoin and a deep knowledge of economics and technology, who has become something of an iconic figure in the world of investing.
Anthony is the founder and CEO of Professional Capital Management, and has built and sold multiple successful businesses, invested in over 200 companies, and created one of the world’s largest independent financial media platforms.
Indeed, many of you will know him as the host of the Pomp Podcast where he produces a wide ranging mix of interviews and personal thoughts on the latest from the world of crypto, finance and technology.
Alongside this Anthony also finds time to produce a daily newsletter analysing the financial markets, unpacking the need to know from the noise and offering insight and unique ideas on how best to protect your wealth.
Of course Anthony is famously bullish on Bitcoin, and has long advocated for its presence in any investment portfolio. As US debt rages on, and the devaluation of the dollar continues apace, Anthony sees Bitcoin as the long term winner.
“Bitcoin had a compound annual growth rate of over 100% when I began buying it in 2017. It was also obvious to me that it would be nearly impossible for someone to create a better digital currency. Once I understood that, I went all in and bought as much Bitcoin as I could.”
As an author, Anthony’s fantastic new book “How to Live an Extraordinary Life” is a slight detour from his investment insights and takes readers behind the curtain in what is clearly a deeply personal project.
The book distils his years of life experience into 65 letters written for his children, covering essential lessons in money, relationships, health, happiness, and success. Unlike his usual finance-heavy work, this book takes a more holistic approach to life’s challenges, drawing from his own mistakes and advice he’s received from others.
“My goal is to share the information with my children and some of you. These are timeless lessons that have been passed down to me, so their survival over time signals their accuracy and value.”
It’s not all been tech startups in Silicon Valley, crypto conferences and online media, Anthony is a former US Army Sergeant and veteran of the Iraq War who, during his seven years of service, developed a strong work ethic and leadership ability that has proved invaluable in his business ventures.
It’s an incredibly thoughtful book with some valuable life lessons that offer a necessary and important reminder no matter what your age.
One such lesson is the importance of finding great assets and holding them forever. Which for Anthony sums up his steadfast belief in Bitcoin. Anthony has been a long term advocate for Bitcoin as a savings technology and refers to it as “Gold With Wings”.
“The digital version of a product is always bigger and more valuable than the analog version. And so, Bitcoin will be more valuable than gold one day.”
Over the past decade, Bitcoin has grown at an astounding compound annual rate of 62%, which, according to Anthony, makes it a powerful tool for wealth preservation and growth. He believes that as more financial institutions and corporations allocate to Bitcoin via ETFs, the demand will surge, further pushing the price upwards.
Anthony points out that Bitcoin is the financial asset that most closely follows global liquidity, and with central banks globally cutting interest rates in a manner not seen since April 2020, cheap capital is flooding into the market, accelerating borrowing and investment.
According to Anthony, this influx of liquidity will make it hard for investors to resist getting more capital into high-return assets like Bitcoin. But for this ecosystem to thrive, he emphasises the need for sensible regulations and areas where policymakers could make impactful changes.
Anthony is a smart guy and really knows his stuff when it comes to the economy and technology. I can’t wait to sit down and talk about all things crypto, it’s a long overdue conversation.
So make sure you tune in and find out what the future holds as we discuss his thoughts on how to lead a fulfilling life, and the key to success. Whether you’re interested in cryptocurrency, entrepreneurship, or just living your best life, this is going to be a biggie, so share the link far and wide.
“Life lessons appear when you are ready or when they are needed.”
